About

Ćao, I'm Kristen.

I live in the beautiful country of Montenegro with my husband and three children. I believe all of life should be celebrated, the big & the small.  I love the table, good food & drinks, meant to be filled with lots of laughter.  Words matter to me.  Music moves me.  I am passionate about slowing down.  I believe we were created to do life together.  I feel alive when I'm creating.  I wake each day with an anthem to cry out.  I take risks so my soul will learn to trust.  My heart beats seeing hearts set free.  I long to fight for the broken & the hurting.  When I close my eyes I see the world as it should have been and what it could be.  I am a dreamer.  An adventurer.

Beauty inspires me.  Belief drives me.  Jesus sustains me.

Why Oaks & Olives:

______________________________________________________

OAKS  "Blessed is the one... whose delight is in the law of the Lord, and who meditates on his law day and night.  That person is like a tree plated by streams of water, which yields its fruit in season and whose leaf does not wither -- whatever they do prospers." (Psalm 1:1-2)
I want to be that tree.  I want to be an "Oak of Righteousness" (Isaiah 61)

OLIVE  Over the years, the olives has been the symbol of peace, abundance, wisdom, glory, power and purity.
